Outcomes of Group Dance and Movement Training in Ambulatory MS Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Nov 2023

Brief summary (registry, in English)

GroundWorks DanceTheater and Cleveland Clinic are partnering to create and offer an initial study of a dance movement-based community program for people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The program will address major needs in the MS community including social-emotional well-being, body awareness, and motor function. GroundWorks artists will use a variety of widely accepted movement-based practices with the goal of improving upper and lower body function and overall well-being. By partnering, GroundWorks and Cleveland Clinic hope to encourage more study of the benefits of dance movement-based programming in individuals affected by MS.
